But some home shoppers have been having a hard time trying to move up. One Surf City reader, a prospective buyer, wrote in that blog’s comments:
I started to look up a few in that ZIP and that price range and they were already in backup offers. And overall, demand seems pretty strong. Homes in the $500,000-$750,000 price range throughout Orange County are at 3.84 months, meaning it would take that many months to theoretically sell all homes in that range, according to an analysis by Steve Thomas at Altera Realty, who does a bi-weekly report on supply and demand. Anything under 6 months is a buyer’s market. “Anything under $800,000, you price them right and boom, they’re gonna go,” says Huntington Beach broker Lillian Walker. “It does make it a little more challenging for a buyer.” Can anyone else relate to the reader’s experience? Is it that hard these days to find something above entry level but less than $800,000? Share in the comments! Read more: ADVERTISEMENT
